Shi Zhijian was sitting on a chair on the balcony, with a small tea table placed next to him. A cup of fragrant tea was smoking on it. He looked at the garden scenery in the distance with a comfortable posture.
Not far behind him, Tang Long, who was Shi Zhijian's personal bodyguard, looked around like a javelin with vigilant eyes.
Even in his own home, Tang Long never relaxes. As a black boxer who has experienced life and death, he knows best what "life hangs by a thread", and this thread may be the result of letting down his guard.
Especially recently, Shi Zhijian had offended too many people, and they were all great people. Tang Long had to work hard to protect Shi Zhijian no matter what.
"It's more comfortable to live in a big house!" Shi Zhijian sighed.
Ever since little Jinbao moved into the apartment, the entire apartment seemed very cramped.
So with a wave of his hand, Shi Zhijian spent 300,000 to purchase a small villa in this beautiful place.
Unlike the luxury houses in Hong Kong, this villa is not in Shi Zhijian's eyes at all, but in the eyes of Axiang, Xiao Jinbao and others, this is a tangible and visible life of wealth.
Now that he has a big house, Shi Zhijian even suggested that Axiang's grandfather, Master Ma, move in with him.
Master Ma said it was bad because he was afraid of disturbing Shi Zhijian. He also said that he was a master of lowering his head and was very unlucky.
But he said this, but he was very honest. The next day, he copied all his belongings and moved to the villa. Taking advantage of his age, he forced Tang Long and Aji to squeeze aside.
He chose a large room with good lighting, and according to his words: "I am old and have only a few days to live well. Let me live in a big house for the rest of my life!"
Thumb thump!
Shi Zhijian didn't need to look back to know that the Aji he sent out was back.
Aji ran to Shi Zhijian panting and reported to Shi Zhijian on the completion of the task.
Shi Zhijian has never been a good man or woman.
Since the Xie family failed in the election, Shi Zhijian was not polite and directly ordered Aji to find Xu Shubiao, the newly appointed inspector general of the Drug Administration, and they would attack the Xie family's company.
The biggest reason why the Xie family has been able to thrive in Thailand for so many years and gain a foothold in the Chinese community is the Xie family's control over the pharmaceutical business.
In other words, a lot of the Xie family's business is actually related to drugs, which is one of the reasons why Xie Shihao can't wait for his precious daughter Xie Bingqian to sit on the throne of the Drug Administration.
The ancestors of the Xie family once made their fortune by developing Golden Rooster Ointment, which is very effective in treating burns. This also allowed the Xie family to make their first pot of gold.
Now the Xie family has a lot of business in the pharmaceutical chain, and what Shi Zhijian has to do is to start with these businesses.
As the saying goes, "the three things a new official needs to do when taking office".
It is understandable that Xu Shubiao directly chose to take action on the Xie family's medical business. After all, as the inspector general, it would be strange if he did nothing.
The most uncomfortable person is Xie Bingqian. Her current position is very embarrassing. As the first female director of the Food and Drug Administration who is "popular", if she shields the Xie family, she will be criticized immediately, and even the media will criticize her.
Verbal and written criticism.
But if she does nothing, she will directly become the sinner of the Xie family.
In the end, she had no choice but to stand still.
As the "chief inspector", Xu Shubiao followed Shi Zhijian's instructions and first surrounded several remote docks of Xie's family, all of which were engaged in drug smuggling business.
Of course, the Xie family would not be stupid enough to let people know that this is the Xie family's business. The people in charge of these terminals have "nothing to do" with the Xie family, and no one can find out about the Xie family.
In addition, Shi Zhijian also asked Xu Shubiao, the inspector general, to hold a "swearing meeting" to combat counterfeit drugs, also with the purpose of targeting the Xie family.
In fact, the so-called "fake drugs" here are "generic drugs" produced by the Xie family's private factory, similar to those in India, and the Xie family also made a lot of money from this.
The situation now is actually very clear, that is, Inspector General Xu Shubiao wants to kill the Xie family.
But the Xie family couldn't fight back. Who made Xie Shihao's daughter Xie Bingqian the director of the Drug Administration?
Whether you want reputation or profit, this is a difficult choice.
The only advantage is that every time before Xu Shubiao takes people into action, Xie Bingqian can inform her family in advance to minimize losses.
Shi Zhijian's series of attacks overwhelmed the Xie family, so they had no time to hinder Shi Zhijian's establishment of a health care products empire.
"Mr. Shi, do you want me to do it now?" After Aji finished speaking, he took off the hat he was wearing, approached Shi Zhijian and raised his hat very diligently to help Shi Zhijian fan him, which was totally clumsy.
This made Tang Long, who was standing behind him and alert to the surroundings, very shameless. He felt that a man should behave like a man, stand upright and rely on his hands to get food without having to pat the horse's beard.
Shi Zhijian smiled and said: "Now I need you to pick up some people at the pier!"
"Pick up someone, pick up who?" Aji asked in surprise.
"Coming from the United States!" Shi Zhijian said, "some very interesting people."
"Oh, I see, he must be your friend, Mr. Shi - I knew you had a wide circle of friends, Mr. Shi!" Aji said with a smile.
Shi Zhijian nodded, "So you must take good care of people and arrange all the food, drink and accommodation."
"Don't worry, Mr. Shi, the Aji now is no longer the Aji before!" Aji said proudly.
Yes, Aji didn't know anything before, he only knew how to punt, but now Aji has not only passed the driving license test, but also knows how to run errands for Shi Zhijian.
And after following Shi Zhijian, Aji found confidence as a man, and his wife at home no longer dared to look down on him. Many neighbors and friends who originally looked down on him began to call him "Mr. Aji" instead of "waste Aji".
"Also----" Shi Zhijian picked up the tea cup.
"Yes, Mr. Shi, do you have any other instructions?"
"Buy me a body armor and a gun for self-defense!"
"Huh?" Aji was stunned for a moment and looked at Tang Long who was standing behind Shi Zhijian. Does this mean that Aaron's protection is not enough? But he still said immediately: "Okay, I'll do it."
Behind him, Tang Long said, "Let me do it. Aji doesn't understand these things."
Shi Zhijian nodded and glanced at Tang Long meaningfully, "You can do better!"
In fact, Shi Zhijian had always wanted Tang Long to be equipped with a gun. However, Tang Long always considered himself to be sharp with his fists and feet and disliked using guns, so Shi Zhijian could only talk about it in a roundabout way.
…
The general's residence.
Peng Bing was sitting on the sofa in the study room, biting a cigar and frowning at the photo in his hand.
The photo was of Shi Zhijian walking under the Hong Kong Shinhwa Group building, wearing a black windbreaker and a white suit, with a slicked back and sunglasses, walking towards the building. A group of group bosses around him collectively bowed to greet him.
This photo was taken secretly. The random shots are a bit blurry, and the washed photos are also a bit blurry. But you can still clearly see Shi Zhijian's appearance, and feel Shi Zhijian's domineering and surrendering atmosphere at that moment.
Peng Bing held the photo, took a deep puff of his cigar hesitantly, and blew out a circle of smoke.
"Are you confused?" A voice came from behind him.
Peng Bing didn't look back, "You came from Hong Kong just to show me this?"
"Of course!" The man showed a broad back, "I know you are being coerced by Shi Zhijian, so I want to help you!"
"Help me? The dignified CEO of Shinhwa, a world-class rich man, is actually playing the game of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger in Thailand. Tell me, how can you help me?"
"It's very simple. Now he doesn't know that his identity has been exposed. He is showing up and we are hiding. Now we only need to use a cruel move to uproot the person named Shi. As for you, you can sit back and relax in the future!
"
Peng Bing bit his cigar and looked at the other person, "What good will this do to you?"
"Benefits?" The man slowly turned around and sat opposite Peng Bing, revealing a weathered face. If Shi Zhijian were here, he would definitely recognize him. It was his archrival in Hong Kong - Li Zhaotian!
"He ruined my family and caused me to lose Ritchie Group. What good do you think it did to me?"
"You want to take back what's yours?"
"That's right! Lee's is mine and no one can take it away! It's just a pity that the girl named Lee in Hong Kong now has a big tiger named Shi Zhijian to support her. I want to fight but I can't fight her! It's better now.
Shi is in Thailand, as long as we kill him, we can clear all obstacles!" Li Zhaotian spoke with a trace of sinisterness on his face.
"Because of him, I spent three years in jail in Stanley, Hong Kong! Do you know how I got through those days? I was always thinking about revenge!"
Peng Bing smiled disdainfully: "It's your business to take revenge. It's not good for you to let me offend someone named Shi for you, right?"
"He's threatening you, isn't he? Are you just being threatened like this and not doing anything?"
"I can bear it!" Peng Bing sneered, "Shi Zhijian is a super rich man. If something happens to him, it will definitely shock the world. I don't want to take such a big risk for you."
Li Zhaotian smiled: "I know what you want--as long as I can get Hong Kong Li's back, I will promise you 30 million!"
"Thirty million?" Peng Bing touched his chin, with a hint of greed in his eyes, "No, no, no, the risk is still too great! My returns are not proportional to the risks."
Li Zhaotian gritted his teeth: "Fifty million!"
"No, not even 50 million!" Peng Bing continued to shake his head, "Shi Zhijian's life is not worth 50 million!"
"Then how many do you want?"
"At the very least----" Peng Bing showed a sinister smile, "I want half of your Lee family property!"
"This is impossible!" Li Zhaotian stood up and stared at Peng Bing, "You are too greedy!"
"I don't call this greedy, I call it bargaining!" Peng Bing said, "Think about it, if Shi was still alive, he would never take your business back in his lifetime! What were you doing at that time?
No, there is nothing! But if I help you kill Shi Zhijian, then you return to the Ricci Group, and I can even help you get rid of your uncle Li Yaozu, and you inherit his property, wouldn't that be a big deal?
Infinite scenery?"
"As a human being, you must think carefully about what to do and what is best for you. You are a smart person. You don't need me to teach you, right?" Peng Bing said, biting his cigar and blowing a puff of smoke towards Li Zhaotian.
Li Zhaotian's expression changed.
Indeed, now he has lost everything and has nothing. If it were not for the support of a few big bosses in Hong Kong, he would not even know that he still has a chance for revenge!
What's more, Shi Zhijian is now in Bangkok with no one to protect him. He wants to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger incognito. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Of course, Li Zhaotian did not fail to consider that Shi Zhijian was luring the snake out of the hole and deliberately using himself as bait, but he felt that the probability of this was not very high. After all, Shi Zhijian was now a billionaire and there was no need to take this risk.
If it were Li Zhaotian himself, he would not do this.
"It's just a pity that he escaped in the United States!" Li Zhaotian gritted his teeth secretly in his heart, "otherwise, so many things wouldn't have happened."
At that time, those behind-the-scenes bosses who supported Li Zhaotian collectively funded Li Zhaotian's revenge, allowing him to hire kidnappers in the United States to kidnap Shi Zhijian, and finally broke up with him.
It's a pity that Shi Zhijian was lucky enough to escape.
The big bosses behind the scenes were all frightened when they found out about this, fearing that Shi Zhijian would find the truth and find them, so they immediately told Li Zhaotian to stop immediately so as not to implicate them.
At that time, Li Zhaotian thought that there was no hope of revenge again. Everyone knew that Hong Kong was Shi Zhijian's territory. If he returned to Hong Kong, it would be very troublesome to deal with him.
At that time, Li Zhaotian even had other ideas, thinking that since he couldn't kill Shi Zhijian, he would kill his friends, his wife, and his favorite family members!
In short, no matter how powerful Shi Zhijian is, he cannot protect everyone by his side. Bruce Lee was the first to bear the brunt and became the first person Li Zhaotian took revenge on.
At that time, Bruce Lee was extremely famous. He became the mainstay of Golden Harvest by cooperating with Shi Zhijian. He also filmed several kung fu films that had great influence around the world, and was revered as the "King of Kung Fu".
Li Zhaotian's method was very simple. He used conspiracy and tricks to make everyone think that Bruce Lee died because he went crazy while practicing martial arts. In fact, only he knew the real reason.
And this is also Li Zhaotian's first warning to Shi Zhijian - if you don't die, your friends and family will die!
What Li Zhaotian didn't expect was that Shi Zhijian did not go back to Hong Kong directly after escaping the disaster, but came to Thailand.
This clearly means that Li Zhaotian is not taken seriously!
Shi Zhijian wants to challenge Li Zhaotian here alone, as well as the Hong Kong bosses who support him behind Li Zhaotian!
"I don't know whether to live or die!" This was Li Zhaotian's final evaluation of Shi Zhijian.
"How is it? How have you considered it?" General Peng Bing's words interrupted Li Zhaotian's thoughts. "You have to think clearly, this is Bangkok, if I take action, the person named Shi will die! And all you have to do is hand over
How about half of your family's property? Isn't this deal a good deal?"
Li Zhaotian's eyes flashed with a sinister look: "Aren't you afraid of Shi Zhijian's revenge?"
"Afraid? I'm really afraid, but I'm even more afraid of poverty!" Peng Bing sneered, "Will you accept the last chance?"
Li Zhaotian looked at Peng Bing fiercely, "Okay, I promise you!"
